Location
Taken from underneath the Verrazzano bridge on the Brooklyn side of the narrows.Time
This was around 10pmLighting
N/aEquipment
Canon 6D camera Canon 28-135mm lens (set to 28mm) TripodInspiration
This was a commissioned piece for a private client who wanted a print of this bridge. So I went down to get a long-exposure shot that would allow me to narrow the aperture to f/20+, which allowed the lights to have the "Star" effect.Editing
Not much was done in post for this image. Believe it or not, the color of the lights was only slightly enhanced. The overall saturation of the image is almost true to real life.In my camera bag
Canon 5Ds/6D, 14mm, 50mm, 28-135mm, 24-70mm, and a 75-300mm. Plus, a flash for low-light events.Feedback
Take your time and work the subject. The best shot comes after you've moved your tripod at least 50 times.
